Second Speaker at Theatre Peckham

Set in Manchester, 2007, Romeo Must Die follows six black teens navigating highs and lows of secondary school life. Loyalty begins to stand the test of time in a tight-knit friendship built on shared struggle, the secrets simmer beneath the surface. When tensions build the teens land at a party where the rivalry of schools and postcodes becomes the topic. The friends are faced with the dilemma of their lives. Friendships are tested, allegiances shift, and the question of loyalty within the community is thrown into focus.  

Whether it's young love, racial politics, or convoluted dynamics, ultimately, Romeo Must Die. 

Romeo Must Die is showing at Peckham Fringe as part of Theatre Peckham’s 40th anniversary celebrations.
